Fox Host Celebrates Deaths, Citing 'Moronic' Need for Briefings
Jones' dismissal of accountability for U.S. military actions, particularly against alleged Venezuelan drug runners, perfectly illustrates how some segments of media sanitize state violence. He proclaimed, 'I don’t need a briefing. Bad guys are dying, I like it.' This isn't just a flippant comment; it's a feature, not a bug, of how certain outlets frame conflict: as a binary choice between good and
evil, where the latter's demise requires no further inquiry. This rhetoric bypasses due process and international law faster than a stealth bomber, echoing similar calls to forgo scrutiny in other theaters, often fueled by well-funded lobbying efforts. The underlying message is clear: if the targets are pre-labeled 'bad guys,' human rights and transparent reporting simply become inconvenient
procedural hurdles. One might wonder if the same logic applies when U.S. bombs land in Gaza, though the label of 'bad guy' pivots with alarming fluidity depending on who's being interviewed.
